Hello,

I got also rather frustrated to see that I could not get kde to work on SL. Therefore, I started looking in kdebase4-runtime, and it seems that
not so much of the code is linked to Qt3Support.
- In kpasswdserver, there is one instance of Q3PtrCollection
- In knetattach, Q3Wizard is used, but QWizard was reintroduced in Qt4.3, so that the dependency on Qt3Support is artificial
- khelpcenter, however, is heavily using Qt3Support.

Therefore, having a kdebase4-runtime running (without khelpcenter) could seem reachable, eventually.

However, by testing the parts of kde we can get for now, I noticed that even though kdelibs4 is compiling with the patches proposed in the tickets of Macports, kdeinit4.app is quitting unexpectedly with: kdeinit4: (klauncher /opt/local/lib/kde4/libexec/klauncher) Pipe closed unexpectedly.

I did not search yet what could be the problem for now, but is anyone else seeing this one ?

Cheers,

Nicolas

As such, this is:

http://trac.macports.org/ticket/20362

ok, after I got confused in this ticket about -cocoa or +cocoa (and tried building both but failed with +cocoa), I found this closed ticket http://trac.macports.org/ticket/21448 and have now given up...

If I understand #21448 right, there is currently NO way on Snow Leopard to finish building anything that depends on QT4-mac with qt3 support (thus for KDE4 everything that depends kdebase4-runtime). And quickly searching I hit https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=201617 and that doesn't look promising at all.

This is very frustrating to have to navigate all the hacks that are needed for the other dependancies and then to ultimately fail on the last step.

So maybe someone with the power to be can update http://trac.macports.org/wiki/snc/snowleopard and http://trac.macports.org/wiki/SnowLeopardProblems with that information (I don't dare to do this since I'm new here and don't want to disrupt any workflow) so others don't have to go through this as well :)

Thanks for the help

Dom
